    Storyline

    Edit

    Edit
    • Trivia
      The music on Nell's alarm clock that she also plays in the car as Woody is Elton John's "Candle In The Wind." Elton John is the executive producer of this film and his partner David Furnish is the producer.
    • Goofs
      Interviews are not required for Yale applicants, and many students successfully gain admission without ever having one. Nell could have simply canceled hers.
    • Quotes

      Woody: [inhabited by Nell, seeing how Woody has dressed her body for school] You look like a common prostitute.

      Nell Bedworth: [Woody in Nell's body] Damn... I was going for high class hooker.

    • Crazy credits

    Enjoyable Entertainment
    The next door neighbors Nell Bedworth (Samaire Armstrong) and Woody Deane (Kevin Zegers) have opposite behaviors and hate each other: the virgin geek Nell is polite, sensitive and well-prepared to go to Yale, while Woody is rude and his greatest expectation is to join a mediocre university due to his abilities playing football. When Nell and Woody are assigned to visit together a museum, they argue in front of the statue of an Aztec god. During the night, their souls swap bodies, bringing difficult situations to them. They first try to damage the reputation of the other in the high-school, but sooner they discover that their dream of joining college would only happen with mutual respect and support.

    There are many movies of swapping bodies; therefore "It's a Boy Girl Thing" is not original. However this predictable story is very funny and this movie is an enjoyable entertainment. Samaire Armstrong and Kevin Zegers show a great chemistry and have excellent performances. My vote is seven.

    Title (Brazil): "Coisas de Meninos e Meninas" ("Things of Boys and Girls")
